Located near the heart of Sequoia National Park, the Sequoia Field Station provides year-round access to the southern Sierra Nevada mixed conifer, subalpine, and alpine ecosystems of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks for research, teaching, and public service. Situated at the edge of Wolverton Meadow and within a mile walk of Giant Forest, the Sequoia Field Station is only two miles from the General Sherman Tree which is the largest tree by volume in the world. The one-room cabin is well-accommodated with a kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping accommodation for three. In addition, visitors can access the “old ski shop” for classes, meetings, or field work preparation.
